Re: accessibility of MacBook Air
In my opinion its a good trade off less size and weight for no optical drive. Those things are going the way of the cassette tape and 3.5 floppy. :). I mean. People are streaming video, downloading music and applications so what purpose will the CD-Rom drive have in say 3 years? I think Apple has just beaten the market to the punch in the exclusion of the optical drive. You will see other computer makers do the same. Don't be surprised if the new MBPs don't have them either.

Re: accessibility of MacBook Air
I just bought a MacBook last February and now I want one of the 11 inch MacBook airs. Getting back to the cd rom drive, I hardly use mine. When I get my pogoplug and drobo next week all of the stuff I have on hard drives and CDs laying around is getting put over on the drobo. When I get this set up I will be able to access all of my files anywhere in the world from any computer. There is even an app for iOS devices.

Re: accessibility of MacBook Air
For now it does. Soon it will come on USB thumb drives. Its already happening. The Macbook air comes with Snow Leopard on a thumb drive rather than a DVD.

Re: AppleScript to move files [was Re: problem moving files to another folder]
Dear list, I'm new at using scripts. This is my first attempt. I retrieved the Move script and I thought followed the directions correctly but when I press the command for the short cut nothing happens. Is there a place where I can find a step by step guide to installing a script such as this one? Also, My computer calls it a work flow is that different then a script? when I open the Move file script it opens in Automator. I don't know really ifthat is good or bad or means nothing.

Exporting an Itunes library
Ok, this is one of a couple stupid questions that i am going to ask. I will ask them in 2 separate emails so as to not mix things up for those interested in one subject and not in the other. I'm planning on using my external 1 TB hard drive as home for my music and sound, so it can be accessed from anywhere. I have my hard drive hooked up to my Airport Extreme. How do i best go about to transfer my Itunes library with all music to the hard drive and then use it without Itunes getting all confused? Is it complicated or is it simply a matter of copy/paste? I would be thankful for step-by-step instructions. /Krister -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Been away too long from Yurufukuru - a couple of stupid questions
Hello. Here comes the second stupid question. This time, it's about the Twitter client Yurufukuru. I was playing with it a while a couple days ago and i had a hard time, or rather a struggle to make it do what i wanted. I couldn't for the life of me figure out how to follow a user. No matter where i looked, there didn't seem to be a way to follow a user. Secondly i had a really hard time with the auto completion feature. No matter how i did it, i could not get it to accept that i wanted to DM a user not in the list, i had to give up alltogether, because the autocompletion put the cursor where i didn't want it and i couldn't find a way to actually place the cursor where i wanted it, so that i could complete the name of the user i wished to DM. Once i managed to convinse the auto completion that i would write to a person not in the auto completion list, but that was only once, and Lord knows how i did it, so if anyone has some hints about how one goes about to make working with Yurufukuru less of a battle and more of a pleasure, i'd be ever so greatful. /Krister -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: Exporting an Itunes library
Hi, It is just a 2 step process. First you will want to go into the settings in iTunes and under advance, change the default iTunes music library to the folder on your external that contains all your music. Then copy and paste the iTunes .xml and other iTunes file onto your external. These should be found in your home folder under music/iTunes. hth Ricardo Walker rwalker...@gmail.com Twitter, Skype, and AIM: rwalker296 Google Voice: 1-646-450-2197 On Nov 13, 2010, at 9:54 AM, Krister Ekstrom wrote: > Ok, this is one of a couple stupid questions that i am going to ask.

Re: accessibility of MacBook Air
I agree, all my apps, media and books are downloaded no cds! I actually ripped all my cds to my external and gave the cds to someone else who is not in this century who still has a tape player woe! I have not used a tape player for five years or so! And at that, I had to check one out from the university's library, because I did not have one!

re: accessable cell phones:
hi sara, scott and other list member I have to say that being someone who is visually impaired and that has used cell phones within the past that were not accessible. I find using the i-phone 3 gs to be a great help to me in the long run due to its high level of accessibility features within the phone itself. i was extremely elated to get my 3 gs last year. now i am working on upgrading to the i-phone 4 within the next few months. I have to agree with scott on that if someone wants to be in the dark ages about wanting to purchase a accessible phone for their personal needs is to be to much money then they should go back to the non accessible phones with no speech features included in the phone. you pay for what you get. if you want junk for a phone then that is what you will get. but if you want something that might want something that is totally accessible and you do not have to worry about anything really then go for the i-phone 3 gs or the i-phone 4. you will never regret it i promise you that much. chenelle Sent from my iPhone -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: Cmd+Tab with Zoom on Annoyance in 10.6.5
Oh, yeah if I said 24 I meant 20 for maximum. And yeah it does this even when mail *wasn't* running.

Re: Does anyone have experience with a product called radio shark
Hi, I got my radioshark today, and the software that comes with it is quite accessible. You have more control with it if you use the software then if you use Audiohijack pro.

Re: Exporting an Itunes library
Hi Krister! The way I understand how Itunes works when you tell it to use the library on your external drive it will not be looking anywhere else so you can just delete the one on your hd or leave it as a back up!

Smiles, Cara :) Hello, iPhone users. I am looking for volunteers who have used an iPhone for at least 6 months, to participate in a short telephone interview in regard to their iPhone experiences. This interview is in support of ongoing research funded by the Department of Veterans Affairs. My current interest in doing interviews with people who are using iPhones is the result of our work on the Cellphone Best Practices project with the Department of Veterans Affairs. In earlier work, we evaluated 14 phones. We learned during this research, that the touchscreen phones can offer access, and the iPhone in particular has done far better than any of the traditionally designed cellphones at affording full access. We completed the first year of the project, and are now in our second year. We are now taking the data from the first evaluations, and developing an evaluation system for best practices in utilizing a touchscreen phone. Our initial evaluations had people using cellphones provided to them for a 3 week interval. We learned much, but we realize we also want data from people who have used the iPhone for 6 months or more. We want to know more about the long term iPhone experience, in order to include that data into our study. I have been asked to conduct short interviews with persons who are blind, and using iPhones for more than 6 months, in order to gain further insights into those long term experiences, and develop action statements that will address needs perceived by long term iPhone users, and not just those using the iPhone for short periods of time. The results will be used to engineer the interface of a touchscreen phone for evaluation, in order to determine "best practices" in designing an interface for persons who are blind. If you are interested in volunteering for an interview about your personal iPhone experiences, please do email me directly at: garywke...@samobile.net I will write you back so that we can establish a good time for the interview, which takes typically, 15-30 minutes.

cd drives going out of style:
hi, heather, eric, sara and everyone on the list I have to say that for over eighteen years or so i have been using cd's as my mode of music choice. however, it has only been the past eight months or so that i have getting my music through itunes and transferring my music library of over 500 cd's to my computer. i still have them all though. due to the fact i still infer that technology can crash at anytime and you have to have a back up to your back up. if you know what i mean. also i have relatives who are still in the age of the stereo system/ cd player age. so when we have party's we often use someof my cd's to listen to etc... i don't think that cd's will go out of date as fast as tape did back in the late to mid eighty's and early nineties. despite the fact that i have saved some of my music to my external hard drive i have not stored all of it as of yet. but i do plann on doing so. chenelle Sent from my iPhone -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: Jumping to a specific time in itunes
Hello List, I am new at this script thing! I am having trouble getting this to work. I'm wondering if it works with Itunes 10.1? I have placed the script in my scripts folder and I have gone to keyboard commander and assigned a key. I then went to itunes and tried my key to see what would happen...nothing happened. OK, so how do I use this script, where do I implement it? Recently I did get the Move Files script working and that is great. But I still have a lot to learn about using scripts. eRic Caron On Nov 12, 2010, at 10:33 AM, Tim Kilburn wrote: > Hi, > > Try the downloadable script from my site: > > http://web.me.com/kilburns/voiceover/downloads.html > > Some updates have been made to this site although it's far from totally > up-to-date yet. > > Later... > > On 2010-11-12, at 7:41 AM, Colin M wrote: > >> Hi Kaare! >> For what purpose if its for making a ringtone then yes but just to start >> playing a track from a certain place I do not know and if you are talking >> about audio books someone else will have to chime in! >> Colin >> On 12 Nov 2010, at 14:26, Kaare Dehard wrote: >> >>> Hi, is the above possible?

So if you have put it in there it might be in the wrong place!

Re: where do you go to get international voices for your mb pro?
Hi Chenelle, I have the British ENglish voices and the SPanish voices for my Mac. You go to http://www.originistruments.com I don't know if they have Australian voices, but they do have British English. You have to purchase the AMerican voices from the Infovox platform before you can add more. I found that out the hard way. I have Heather, Laura and Ryan which are the American voices. They are good as well. I hope that helps. Have a wonderful day. Thank you for all the info about the Bletooth Apple Wireless keyboard.

Re: Purchasing music from iTunes
Sarai, The music is downloaded to the same location as your ripped CDs. You are given the opportunity to back your purchases up to a CD or DVD.

Re: where do you go to get international voices for your mb pro?
Ah yes, I've just now installed the US and British voices. If I wanted to purchase just the US and British voices, how can you be sure you're not paying for voices you're not going to use? When I went to the infovox app, I saw the button where it says "purchase online". From what I could tell, I need one license for the US voices and a second license for the British Voices.

Re: where do you go to get international voices for your mb pro?
Hi Ray and all, Well, the only thing I can think of is that the licenses for the voices are purchased sepearately. You can see the contents of your shopping cart before you check out. Yes, you are correct, you have to purchase the U.S. vvoices and then the British English voices. I hope that helps. I had a bit of trouble with this process, so if you need any help, just let me know. Have a wonderful evening. Happily, Allison My birds are winged blessings, they help me soar!

Music Notation software
Hello my fellow Mac loving musicians, What options, if any, are there for music notation software on the Mac? I know a lot of sighted people who use Finale, but I haven't messed with it, and I haven't touched music notation since I lost my sight, with the exception of a very basic primer in braille music. I know that Dancing Dots has some solutions on the Windows side, but I would really prefer to keep things Mac centric around here.

Re: Exporting an Itunes library
Hi, the easiest way to accomplish this is to simply copy the complete iTunes folder from your Music folder onto the external drive. Then, startup iTunes while holding down the Option key which will force iTunes to ask about choosing a Library. Press cmd-shift-c to access all devices connected to your computer. Select the external drive, expand it then select the copied iTunes folder. Press Choose and everything will work just like it did when your Library was in its original location. You can then delete the old iTunes folder if you wish without any problems or leave it where it is and in either case, there will not be any duplicate issues. Later...

Re: Jumping to a specific time in itunes
Hi, The script does work in itunes 10.1 as I just verified it. Make sure you do the following with first quitting iTunes: 1. Download the Restart At script. 2. Locate the downloaded script in your Downloads folder and copy it with cmd-c. 3. Press cmd-shift-h to bring up your Home folder. 4. Open the Library folder. 5. Open the iTunes folder. 6. If there is no folder named Scripts, create one. Scripts should have a capital "s". 7. Paste the Restart At script into the Scripts folder. 8. Open itunes and there will now be a Scripts menu beside the Advanced menu. That should do it. Later...

Re: moving to a computer-based entertainment system
Hi, Yes you can import your DVDs using Handbrake. It is accessible and works great. Some DVDs have copy protection that causes the scenes to get all mixed up but there is a trick on the Handbrake web-site that gets around that issue, you'll just need sighted assistance for that one.

Re: moving to a computer-based entertainment system
In my opinion getting dvds into itunes on the mac is easier than under windows. The only down-side to using a mac as your entertainment hub is that TV is very difficult, if not impossible to access. There seems to be only one aplication for tv watching on the mac, EyeTV, and it's absolutely useless with voiceover, although from all accounts it's a cool programme! Apart from that, the mac is a good option. Vaughn.

Re: where do you go to get international voices for your mb pro?
Yes you are correct, but you still have to buy the American voices if you do not have them already installed. Heather does come in the bundle, but unless you have the American voices installed, the British ones will not work. I learned this from experience.

Re: cd drives going out of style:
Its all ready changing. People aren't buying CDs anymore. I dare you to find a record store. lol. 15 years ago, they were everywhere. The majority of people download music. By next year, music albums downloaded, will pass albums sold in stores. the change is coming. People will cling to the CD like they clung to the cassette tape.
